Re: Waiting For Stevie
it's just, in retrospect, kind of baffling that they waited this long to write this song. It's such a distillation of so much that is important to the band (end especially Eddie) and prior to this it's only really been explored in 'throw away' songs like Supersonic or STBC (which is great, but hardly carries emotional gravity)

Right...They've usually been relegated to the "fun" category (insofar as PJ is capable of fun, anyway). Slightly disposable.stip wrote:it's just, in retrospect, kind of baffling that they waited this long to write this song.

Got Some would be another.
This is really the first to really match the emotional gravity of the sentiment.

Hopefully they'll wait until the end of the tour and debut it in Baltimore

They're trying to artificially manufacture a Breath '98 sign campaign.

Re: Waiting For Stevie
As much as I'd love for this to start getting played, if I could be there for the debut in the Fall that would be amazing.

They'll play it in Portland tomorrow. They just wanted to debut at least one song in the US because fuck Canada.

I agree Clem, but that was also a serious question.

If they haven’t played this song by the time we get to the Garden, I am making a huge sign that says “We are still Waiting For Stevie”

Re: Waiting For Stevie
